whipped cream for days

I LOVE HOMEMADE WHIPPED CREAM!! Ok there I admit it…I LOVE homemade whipped cream. The first step is admitting it right?? Well there you go…I admit it…I not only love it but I am kinda obsessed with it a little bit.

My mom would always make homemade whipped cream for special occasions and I was always so excited. The problem was she would always have to leave the gathering and pull out the mixer and whip it up while her guests were enjoying their drinks because it would deflate if she made it before they arrived…so over the years I have been experimenting with several different stabilizing options to help maintain a fluffy whipped cream for a longer amount of time and finally I found the secret….gelatin.

OK, so the secret is to let the gelatin and water sit of a few minutes before you you dissolve it into the water and then add it into the whipped cream. This allows the gelatin to set up completely so when you add it into the whipped cream it stabilizes it and will keep it nice and fluffy for hours and hours…making it perfect for Holidays and special occasions. Or if your like me in the refrigerator for a few days for me to snack on…yes I am that obsessed.
